KANSAS TWELVE MONTHS, $1.50. J. O. MIDNIGHT GIVES OPINIONS OF K.C.,K. PEOPLE Wichita, Kansas.—Now you see where I am when I write to you this week, but you can't guess where I have been, but if you will look at the last letter you will see where I was when I wrote it, but believe me, honey I am far away from there now. I am going to tell you some of the places I have been and some of the things I have seen, but you must not expect me to tell all, for I am not going to do it. When I wrote to you last week I was mingling with the bishops and going-to-bishops, way up yonder in Baltimore, but I have left there and now I am here in Kansas, the home of Governor Allen, and the home of Dr. J. R. Ransom, who is some bishop timber, and he has the love and respect of the people in this section of the country and the man who is doing so much to help his church and race. I am real proud of him, and feel like calling him my own son. He has had much to do with placing Western University on the map, and he is going to do much more in the future. God bless him and keep him to the end of time, and I hope some day to have the pleasure of attending a conference presided over him. Mrs. Ransom is an ideal wife, and she delights in entertaining the friends of her husband. I thank God for her and the nine children she has borne into this world. They are up and one of them is one of the leading physicians of Topeka. His daughter is the wife of an African Methodist preacher; one holds an important position in the state, another is federal guard at the penitentiary, another one is fiscal agent at Western University, another one is now getting ready to get rine and be plucked next spring as a medical doctor from State University of Kansas, and three have gone home. But I am not here to talk about all that this week, for I shall have more to say about it in another letter. You remember I was walking around in Washington when I wrote that letter which you read, and I told you then about the death of R. W. Thompson, and we shall miss him. I left Baltimore, telling Dr. W. W. Sampson Brooks goodbye, hoping to meet him again on this earth as Bishop Brooks, had my farewell meal with Bishop John Hurst, and Bishop Parks, and some other friends who were there, and we beat it to the stable, got on the iron horse and made my way to Washington, where I had to wait until 10 o'clock to get in my bed car, headed for Kentucky. I had to get upstairs, and believe me when I tell you I came within an inch of falling out, and perhaps it would have split me wide open from falling so far. That old iron horse grunted that he had the aches of some kind, and shot around them curves like he was trying to knock his fool brains out. But he kept on just the same, and I slept until that exciting time came and there was not much more sleeping for me. In Washington I had the pleasure of meeting one of the best men I know, and will tell you about him in another letter. He is chairman of the trustee board of Metropolitan A. M. E. church, and that church is getting ready to send Dr. C. M. Tanner, the Pastor, to St. Louis, and when he returns he will be Missionary Secretary to succeed Bishop J. W. Rankin, and he deserves the place, for he is qualified for it. I got off at Frankfort, Ky., spending the day there. I rode all day with Rev, W. D. Johnson, Rev. A. P. Gray, who is slated for manager of the A. M. E. Book Concern, and I am not prepared to talk about him now. Dr. Johnson read for us. I shall now tell you that when I reached Frankfort, I went to the First Baptist Church, and the preacher hitched me up to pull off the train Sunday night, and just how well I pulled the people will have to tell you. The crowd was small, and I was smaller, I think, because I had been on the road for twenty-four hours. After the services I went to the home of Mr. and Mrs. T. L. Brooks, and had one more good supper. When the supper was over I went (Concluded on Fourth Page) GROCERY (Successor to Keefer) Big Sale of ARISTOS FLOUR COMPLETE LINE OF GROCERIES MEATS, FEED OF ALL KINDS. N. E. ISLE Fairfax 1482 3098 N. 27th St. Kansas City, Kas. VOLUME VI. DR. CHAS. STEWART ADDRESSES THE SUMNER HIGH "The State of Kansas, County of Wyandotte, City of Kansas City, are investing large sums of money in the schools, and they are expecting you to return the principal and interest expended on each individual, and the question I desire to ask you young people, will you pay the principal and interest on the money spend on you?" were the opening words of a practical address delivered at Sumner High school last Friday by Charles Stewart, A. M., D. D., of Chicago, Ill., general missionary of the National Baptist convention, and one of the most noted men of his race in this country. While here last fall Dr. Stewart promised to return to the city and deliver a talk to the high school. He is a favorite among the young people of this country, hence it is not surprising that he was greeted with an enthusiastic ovation Friday morning when he entered the assembly room, accompanied by Rev. Sawyer of the Methodist Episcopal church. He considered it needless to discuss principal, interest, or to define them to the high school, but it was necessary to inform them of that which would be exacted by the state, county and city. The principal was a man, a woman, and the interest would be an unselfish service rendered to mankind. "You must first study a man, see what he is, what it takes to make a man, and then measure up to the standard. The Bible says, 'The Lord God formed man out of the dust of the ground and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life and man became a living soul.' The man was not physical size, was not the dust assembled together, but that which came from the mouth of God, mind, soul, will. "If physical size and strength were manhood, then the elephant would rule the world, and would be backed up by the lion and the horse, but man goes into the jungles, captures the elephant, brings him into civilization, rides on his head or back, leads him around by his ear, cages the lion, walks in the cage and the lion crouches in his corner, controls as high as a dozen horses at the same time, and all because they are void of mind, soul and will; they do not think, and the position of the Negro in this country is due to the fact that he has not produced enough thinkers. We have too many worthless men and women who are down trodden because of their lack of thought. They go through the world with a false conception of life. Too many desire only to be society buds and blooms, and they never amount to anything. "Manhood and womanhood is with in your reach today, and I want that you shall reach up and get it. Dismiss the idea of color, hair, and take the opportunities that are yours today. You cannot find the man woman, in the ball room, around car tables, at the movies, in that empty headed dude and dudelet class with wooden heads and gravel brains, but by association with the best society this world had ever known. Associate with such men and women as Elizabeth Browning, Shakespeare, Sappho, Julius Caesar, Wyckliffe, Ridley, Littimer, Oliver Cromwell, Tactitus, Horace, Scipio, Step into Athers and take a journey with Aristotle, Plato, Sophocles, Themistocles, Miltides, Euripides, Aeschylus, and old Homer and even with the soldiers at the Pass of Thermopylea This is feeding your mind and not taking time in idle destroying gossip. "You have splendid examples young people in what a man-woman can accomplish who has found himself, when you come in touch with Prof. Hodge and those associated with him. These men and women are sought after every year by others, because of their true manhood and womanhood and because of the real service they are rendering: You do not find them in the ball room, around card tables, but mingling with thought. They are not society dudes, but service men. They do not sit around talking about the downtrodden race, but their thoughts are spent on an uplifted race. Not for self, but for others. They are not talking about what they are going to do after while, but what they are going to do today. They do things, "The man or woman who is prepared will find many openings. Dignify any position in which you may be placed. The servant apron and hood is as honorable as the college cap and gown. You should not throw away your education because you cannot get a clerical position when you step out of the school room or become a 'fessor' but take hold of any kind of honorable work, and work up. It is nice to start at the bottom of the ladder and climb to the top.

Pattrick, 905 Ohio avenue, was omitted in the list of last week's report of those who were in the Douglass hospital Tag Day. Mrs. Pattrick was under the captaincy of Mrs. Lindsey Taylor and did a great work on that day. Others who did a great work for tag day, were Mr. W .W. Patrick, one of our old and popular railroad men, and Miss Ernestine Kelley. The committee would be glad to publish any others whose names were omitted. Mr. Patrick turned over this week to his captain, Mrs. Taylor, $14.00 on Douglass hospital aTg Day drive. Attorney Dorsey Green received this week from a friend, Dr. L. T. Jones, Victoria, B. C., a set of whale fins, being about one foot long. They were said to be the gill fins, which are the smallest on the whale. They are attracting a good deal of attention at Lawyer Green's office, 516 Minnesota avenue. Mr. J. Groves of Edwardsville, and one of the wealthiest farmers in Wyandotte county, and a director of The Peoples' Mercantile company of this city, was in the city Tuesday, and was a caller at the company's store, 418 Minnesota avenue. Mrs. George Osborn, on James street, is quite ill. the position of chief clerk in the office of the president of the Mobile & Ohio Railroad; from elevator boy, Julius Avendorph, in Chicago, worked to a high clerical position in the office of the president of the Pullman company. It means much more to start down and work up than to start up and work down. Let your real ability win you peace. There are lots of business men who believe in you and are willing to help you, but you must prove worthy. "For my shortcomings, I have never abused any man, but have found good in all. I wish I had the time to tell you of the encouragement I have had in this country by men of worth, men of thought, men of justice. But let it rest here. Do your work and do it well. Mr. J. A. Edson, president of the Kansas City Southern, told me today that he had had with him one colored man for 27 years, and I replid to him, it was because that man thought, that he had been able to remain with you so long. He agreed with me, and added that he never had to tell him what to do. He knew his work and looked after it, and when anything was placed in his hands it was attended to. He has not only made a place for himself, but for some other worthy man or woman of our race. You prove worthy and the place is yours, it will wait until you are prepared to fill it, so don't come out of school half prepared." Dr. Stewart spoke at night for the Peoples' Mercantile Company mass meeting and left Saturday morning, for Oklahoma, stopping by Wichita, for a few hours. ADVOCATE According to a telegram from Prof. Wm. Pickens, New York, Wednesday, to the associate editor, G A Gregg, he will be here as principal speaker to the Sixth Annual Knife and Fork banquet, at the First A. M. E. church, on March 31st. This is good news to the people of the two Kansas Cities, as he had to cancel some important engagements to fill this one. There will be more about him in our next issue. Teachers' Day Tachers 'Day will be observed at Citizens' Forum, Sunday evening at 4 o'clock at Metropolitan Temple. Teachers of Lincoln High, Sumner High and Western University faculties will be represented. Prof. Earl Lawson will give an address.

No conversing during benediction will be permitted and no passing out until benediction has been given. Last, but not least, punctuality from henceforth. Four o'clock means the starting of the program.

He made some wise and appropriate suggestions for the betterment of our condition; the most important of which was that concerning our political status, which was well taken, and indorsed in the resolutions adopted by the club, as follows, to-wit: Be it resolved by the members of the Lincoln Day Club, of the State of Kansas;—That we heartily indorse the idea of memoralizing the Republican National Convention at Chicago, to incorporate as a part of its platform, a statement to the effect: That lynching be made a crime against the laws of the United States and that the opportionment of congressmen in all the states be made in accordance with the number of persons votig therein, in the spirit, and to the letter of the Constitution. And that we immediately request the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People to undertake to call a convention of delegates from all the states to meet at Chicago, at the time of meeting of the national convention, which shall present the request of the colored people to said convention. That this convention of colored people to be composed of not less than three from each state, and as many more as any state shall see fit to send. That a committee of three be appointed to present the matter to the Association for the Advancement of Colored People. And be it further resolved;—That in the event that said Association for the Advancement of Colored People, cannot, or is not inclined to call such a convention; then that the committee be, and it is thereby empowered to present the request to the Colored World Democracy, organized at Chicago, September 16, 1918, to call such convention of colored people. Be it further resolved;—That each of the cities, and other communities of the state, are hereby empowered to elect delegaets to said convention, for the purposes hereinbefore set out.

NATIONAL NEGRO PRESS ASSOCIATION. Just a Few Western Suggestions Mr. Editor:I realize from reading the columns of your valuable paper that one should not occupy too much space in order that the many who are interested and have something to say concerning the much needed legislation for the best interest of the church may have an opportunity to give utterance to a word. The West is more interested in the General Conference than ever before, for many reasons. As I see it now every question coming before the General Conference is an important one. The election of Bishops is one of the most important. We should be careful as to the selection of men who are to guide the destinies of the Church through her period of reconstruction. The electric flash from the pen of that time-honored hero of many a hard fought battle, Dr. J. C. C. Owens, has thrown the right ray across the horizon of Methodism in his reference to the law governing our beloved Bethel. Delegates to the General Conference, read it. It carries with it many of the fundamentals which are so very necessary for the safety of our church. You will find the sentiment in the West is against the removal of the time limit for many reasons. First, because the Blessed Master commissioned us to go and not to stay; Second, because it would destroy our form of government, and suspend the Eniscopal supervision. Why, our Bishops can hardly govern many of our churches because of the five-year limit. The pastor and part of the members began to say at once, we are going to keep him five years. It is not time for us to do or remove the time limit because the great Methodist Episcopal Church has. We can't afford it just at this time. Don't close the gate of advancement in the face of the hard working and studious Missionary. But let him enter the Gate ripe in intellect and experience. The Christian Church is greatly in need of men to take charge of the work, but the moment we shut the door of advancement then and there you will cripple the church for all time to come. Remove not the landmark of the fathers. Tell what method you mean and how you can better support the missionaries by removing the time limit. The Methodist preacher can go almost anywhere and stay because his salary is paid from the great Missionary Treasury, and ours continue to labor and suffer and come to the conference and pay as much or more than many of the men who are clamoring for the removal of the time limit. Why can't our Bishops live at the present salary, with an addition of $100 for each conference held. When they receive more for holding six o seven conferences in five or six weeks than two-thirds of their pastors receive. Don't talk about it pastors receive, don't talk about increase, just let it alone. Our Bishops are not asking for an increase. They are satisfied to work on at the present rate. What about dividing the Fifth District. We will have to stand it. But we hope you will not divide our Educational interest. Then to give us back the Western Christian Recorder, if you are and which I believe you are. We can't under stand why, in the face of the great increase in all of our finances, our loyalty and devotion to the Great Cause that the General Conference cannot give us back the paper and give us that able man who stands out a peer a scholar and a writer, Dr. J. D. Barksdale, as the editor. He is able to wake up this Western Empir Barksdale would be the second H. T. Johnson of pleasant memories. Now, another suggestion. Kansas, the Sunflower State, the home of John Brown, who gave his life for the Freedom of the Black Man. Kansas any her loyal sons have never been honored by the church with a Bishop nor a General Officer. She THE WEEKLY ANNOUNCER OF FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH J. F. GRIFFIN, Pastor.

CHURCH NEWS The services at 11 a.m. were well attended and the congregation listened to their enjoyment and spiritual edification to a strong and scholarly sermon by the assistant pastor, Rev. Jones. It was sfoed for thought to those who hungered after righteousness. Rev. Jones filled th epulpit at the evening service with another splendid sermon on "Practical Christian Liking." The choir, under the directress, Mrs. King, sang divinely, which went to the souls o fthose present. The Sabbath school and Christian Eideavor were well attended and the lessons taught from these two Christian organizations ought to be a life anchor for those who felt the need of safety. Dr. Edward Vaughan, Dean of the theological department at Western University, will be the speaker Sunday morning at 11 o'clock. Dean Vaughan is one of the greatest Bible scholars and theologians of all this western country and a wonderful pulpit orator. Come and hear him Sunday morning. The choir will have special music. The second quarterly meeting of this conference year will be the second Sunday in March. the 14th. Our pastor, Dr. Griffin, who is now taking a recreation trip in California and other parts of the West. will be back. The church is praying that he may return to us with new vigor and greatly built up. Come to the church with a smile. Dr. Griffin arrived safely Sunday morning at 11 a. m., in Los Angeles, according to a letter to Mrs Griffin Tuesday, and stated he was feeling good has been loyal and true, and means to continue so. She is coming to the General Conference to join with you with the Grand Old Fifth District behind her to assist you in the legislation and the solving of the many many problems that must come before the General Conference for solution. We beg you to join with us and elect Dr. J. R. Ransom as one of the Bishops, because he is worthy as I see it. We need men on the order of Bishop Arnett and Grant. Dr. Cary would be the second Arnett. He would stand, if need be, in legislative halls and present our cause to the world. Ransom would be the Second Grant because of his great ability as a preacher and creator, his broad vision of the needs of the Race in Church, and state. The leaders of both Church and state are daily in consultation with him in the affairs of state and National affairs.. Now, give us Ransom and encourage us to continue on our upward way.-Dawson Self, pastor Weir Circuit, Weir City, Kansas.

CHURCH METROPOL TEMP Sunday, February what mild in the m licity committee of CITIZENS' FORUM The lawyers of the Twin Cities took February 22nd, Washington's birthday, as their day at the Citizens' Forum, at Metropolitan Temple. The Intercity Lawyers' Club was presided over at first by Attorney G. Booker as President L. A. Knox was detained on business; then Judge Bradley was given the chair and explained the object of the meeting, which was their motto, "Race Co-operation." Later Attorney F. B. Anderson, the vice-president, presided. The address, "The Status of the Negro Lawyer in Community Life," by Attorney C. H. Calloway, was a fine plea for colored lawyers. He referred to the honesty of Abraham Lincoln, our martyred president, in contrasting the honesty of our lawyers. A tenor solo, by Mr. Alexander Gatewood, of Kansas University, accompanied by Mme. Summers, was so classical it was enclosed. "The Lawyers' Symposium" was opened by Judge I. F. Bradley, and discussé by Mr. C. Jenkins, who differed with some views of some of the lawyers. Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Shackelford and Dr. Dibble talked well. Attorney W. B. Bruce, a fine orator, who used good fluent language, tlaked well and Attorney D. E. Henderson answered the asperSION "that lawyers are dishonest." He is a fine pleader. Attorney Calloway closed the debate. After another solo by Mr. Gatewood and the offering was lifted and Attorney Towers read his critique; and the program for next Sunday, February 29, which will be Teachers' Day was announced. Adjourned with the benediction by Dr D. A. Holmes. Miss Orpheus Scott and Mrs. V. Calhoun were the program committee. We were glad to see Prof. G A.

The publicity committee of this church had decorated three blackboards with the program off services for God, first, then with flags for Washington's birthday. At 11 a. m., Pastor Holmes preached to a large congregation from John 14:1-2, "In My Father's House are many Mansions." In part he said: "We have a spiritual kingdom." "No one get a vision unless he prays for it. The letter kills, the spirit makes alive." "As many as are led by the spirit, they are the sons of God." He was so filled with the spirit, that he kindled the flame in many hearts and sang in the midst of the sermon, "Christ is All in All." He taught the lesson that God will take away this old first carnal body and give us spiritual body like His, if we are faithful unto death. The full choir sang "Softly and Tenderly Jesus is Calling, O Sinner, Come Home." The recording secretary was present and the corresponding secretary was asked to write names of those giving at the deacons' table. Trustee Branch had the recorder at his table. The offering was large. Some of the visitors present were: Mr. and Mrs. Wilev of Texarkana, Ark: Mrs. Carrie Brown of Atchison; Mrs. Parker Gardner; Mrs. Horace Bell; Messrs. Wheeler, Ballom, Griffin and Berry. Pastor Holmes has been given a trip out west, also $300 or $400, on his $900 auto by his members, suits, Bibles, and presents of many kinds. He, also, is called in by white judges for his opinion concerning many things in our race. They, too, give him presents. He has endeared himself to many colored and white people in Kansas and Missouri. He started churches to being built and has the finest Baptistry, laboratory and best arranged and proportioned church in the city and on the biggest street. His members have done fine and he as pastor has led them to victory in building a Temple, which has not been excelled. At 8 p. m, he preached well again. The collection was very large. Come to church. Mrs. Coffer of Ann avenue, has been very sick for several days. Mrs. Lillie Kearney, 1029 Walker avenue, after a three-weeks' illness, is able to be out. Miss Viola Richards, 810 Nebraska avenue, was on the sick list last week. PUBLICATION NOTICE. In the District Court of Wyandotte County, Kansas. Lilly Wells. Plaintiff James Wells Defendant.

Editor The Kansas City Advoczte, Dear Sir: Please allow me space in your pa- per to say something of the welfare of the people of Garden City. - T want to say that our second quar- terly conference was a great success, both spiritually and financially. Dr. Smith preached two wonderful ser- mons to our people of this city, both morning and night, at which time Bro, Robinson came forward and unit- fed with the church. I want to say that since my arrival in this city, though the power of God and the in- spiration of the Holy Spirit, which hag awakened men and women to see the marvelous light of the Gospel -which hsa been preached. ‘This, your jhumble servant, has been able to in- crease the membership at this placc |from 19 to 87, not saying anything jabout the nine pensons who wert transferred to the two Baptist Churches of this city. I also enjoyed the lovely reunion dinner which was given at the heme of Bros, Robison, Pattison and Mickens, and also Bro "Dudley, at which time I was royally entertained by the distinguihsec guests, Mr. Payne, from Fulton, Mo. , Who was the father and father-in-law of the above persons just mentioned O, say, man, turkey, chicken and cake was so numerous until I hardly knew which one I wanted to take first to satisfy my appetite. I also want to mention to you the , Success which we had in our Tag Day ‘entertainment. Miss Nadine Neff ‘captain of Club No. 1, $6.40; Miss {Mable White, captain of Club No, 2, | 3825. Receipts from the Tag Day jentertainment, $7.15. Total amount $1980. I also want to say that The Triangle Club of which Miss Nadine Neff is president, gave a beautiful Valentine party, where they were roy- ally entertained at the home of Mr. and Mrs. T, K. King, 701 Ninth street. After the close of the party |these 34 persons thronged our church jand purchased that we had for sale. THE KID Came FIRST! Captain of Club No. 1, who sold the 64 tags, which amounted to $6.40, re- ceived first prize, which was a beau- tiful military cap and lavallier. Cap- tain of Club No. 2 received a beauti- ful private military cap. I want to also say that Mr, and Mrs. Dudly have prepared to run a restaurant to take care of those who come into our city. Mr .aud airs. Jackson have a beautiful restaurant in Dodge City and are getting along just fine. They have 16 regular boardeis and turned away 14. ‘Their present location is not Isrge enough 1 cntertain the present patronage which they have in the cty. 14 are now looking out for < larger lo- cation that they may be able to take care of all \ ho my e»ne to them. I want to say that the church and Srnday school and A'len League at hoth places sre moving along just fine. We have nothing to regret. We elso now are trying to organize a National Protective League. We now have enrolled 20 members, and we “spe by the next mecting, which be on the second of Murch, to enroll 50 members, which will grant to us ‘a charter for this vie'nity from the National Headquarters at New York City. I would like to see the day come when this Ethiopean race of ours would come to be one solid pha- lanx We, also, the people of this western country, endorsed J.R.Ransom as be- ing the next bishop of the Fifth Episcopal District. And why we do thet is for *his simple rotor: Af'or looking over the e*tegory, from Bish- op Allen, from 1816 down to the pres- ent Bishops, now that every other state in the Union has a representa- tive on the Bishopric, saving the State of Kansas. And the Kansas Conference has done as much for the ‘general cause as any other state in the Union, and yet we have not as much as a general off'cer from this state. I do trust and hope that the delegates from Kansas Conference will do all in their power to bring these things to pass in which we rep- resent as men of God that are striv- ing for the uplifting of humanity. I ask the reiers of this prner te take this matter under consideration and see whether I am right or wrong Our motto is this moral part of the vineyard “God is our Father, Carist '|is our Redeemer, man is onr brother.’ Yours for the Master’s Cause, Rev, T. E. WALKER, Pastor of the Garden City Circuit. NADIND NEFF, Reporter. P. S—The financial proceeds fron the quarterly conference were $41.60 Total amount raised for the quarte was $365.85.

FIFTH ST. THE KANSAS CITY ADVOCATE J. O. Midnight Gives Opinions of K. C., K. People to see some other friends. I had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Louise Jewitt-Perrv, of Paris Ky. She was the guest of Miss M. E. Williams, one of the public school teachers, but I did not get to see Prof. W. H. Mayo. I called on as many people as possible and then the next morning I went over to see the father of Charles Stewart, and talked with him just a little bit, and made it to Louisville, Ky., to spend a few hours with William H. Steward, and his family, visited the State University, then off to Chicago for a few more hours, and had the pleasure of shaking hands with a few people there. They are talking about Carey and Brooks, and Ransom and Caldwell, and Fountain, and some others whose names I do not remember. They think that there should be five bishops made, and Dr. John A. Gregg should be sent to South Africa, and I second the motion. I walked around the streets there and then got myself together secured authority to ride in a bed car, and left Chicago Thursday evening, so as to be in Kansas City, Kansas, Friday morning, and I was there and went direct to the Sumner High School, because I think much of the young people in that school and they think much of me, hence we have a mutual admiration society. I did not know that I was going to run up on that fellow Stewart, there, but I did; he made a special, talk and I listened to him; whether I agree with all he said or not, I was there just the same. I had the pleasure of sitting at the table and eating in honor of three men who were born in February. They claimed to be great men, and I think they must be, because they are professors in the school, and to my mind, one of the finest school men in America is Prof. Hodge. I do not hesitate to say this, because he has won it. Leaving the school I had the pleasure of getting in company with Mrs Norene Davis. Grand Worthy Counselo rof the Knights of Pythias, or the Court of Calanthe, and she has invited me to attend the next session to be held, at some point, I do not remember just where, but she will tell me if she means for me to come, and if she don't write to me about it, then she simply invited me for manners, and for manners I will stay away. If you mean it, invite me again. I talked with her. She started to take me over to see some basket ball game, but she got lost from me, or I got lost from her over in big Kansas City, Missouri, and I saw a lot of young people going to see the game, and I just followed the crowd. Sumner High School played Lincoln High school, hence Kansas against Missouri, and Kansas won, and then followed another game the State school at Topeka, against Western University, and Topeka won that game, and next I went out and had the pleasure of meeting the editor of The Advocate. Believe me when I tell you Editor Kennedy is some long man, and I can see why he gets out a good paper, for his wife is just as short as he is long, and in the editorial work they have the long and short of it, and they form a fine combination and turn out a good paper. I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Banks, who invited me to attend a meeting for the purpose of making a few scattering remarks to the people of this Peoples' Mercantile Company. They were making a drive for an additional $10,000. There is something connected with this speech that I shall talk about later. I spent the night at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Tilford Davis, and left there Saturday morning for somewhere in the world. I am on my way, but where I am going you will just have to read the papers and find out after I have been there, for you see, I am in Wichita now, and will be away from here before you can say "scat." I am just goin' to leave here, and there is no getting away from it. I was met at the stable by Dr. J. R. Ransom and Rev. Van Lue, of the Baptist church. You see there was a committee composed of one Methodist preacher, and one Baptist preacher to meet me. Baptists and Methodists are getting together in this town, and one of them is to be a bishop, and while my Baptist brother says that he is a bishop already. I do want to see the Revs. W. Sampson Brooks, A. J. Carey, J. R. Ransom, and J. C. Caldwell and W. A. Fountain bishops after the next general conference. Already I have a letter from Mrs. Annie M. Malone stating that reservation would be made for me there, and I think that I will be there on time. Look out for me, please. I shall have many things to say to you from time to time. I did not see so many people while passing through. I am to leave Dr. J. R. Ransom in a few hours from now, going to Oklahoma City. If you want to get me a letter, send it to the Arkansas Baptist College. I shall tell you something about Prof. J. M. Manquess in my next letter, for I expect to visit him before I get thru. Mrs. Nanie Jones, 932 Walker, who has been quite sick, is much-improved and able to be up a little. Alpha Art Club met at the home of Mrs. Dwiggins. Opened in usual form, with Mrs. Rosetta White presiding. She quotations were from "Dunbar." Each lady seemed busy in some kind of art work. We had the pleasure of having several visitors present among whom was Mrs. Cook of Kansas City, Mo., who lectured to the ladies on the "World Wide Movement." She especially emphasized that there should be more interest in leisure time of our race. A dainty luncheon was served by hostess. The club adjourned to meet first Friday in March, 2 p. m., with Mrs. N. Wilson. Mrs Dalton, 1232 Barnett, is sick and confined to her bed Mrs. Carrie Miller, 920 Walker, is much improved, after several weeks' illness. Mrs. Ed Lyles attended the funeral of Mrs. Parks' father at Garnett, Wednesday. Between G. W. Reed, Int. Organizer A. M. C.—B. W.—N. A., and Rev. George McNeal, pastor Pleasant Green Baptist Church on the question: "Resolved, That it is not best for negroes to belong to labor uni- one." Geo. McLean, the noted leader of the non-union colored element, will have the affirmative, while Geo. Reed, the Union Giant, whose power we all know, will have the negative. There will be some excitement. Debate will be at Rev. McNeal's church, Fourth and [Oakland] (March 4 at 8 p. m. PUBLICATION NOTICE. In the District Court of Wyandotte County, Kansas. Division No. 2. Earnest E.
